From: Philippe Mathieu-Daudé <f4bug@amsat.org>

While loading the executable, some platforms (like AVR) need to
determine CPU type that executable is built for by reading the
field 'e_flags' of the ELF header of tha executable.

This patch enables such discovery of that field while using any
of the following functions:

  - load_elf()
  - load_elf_as()
  - load_elf_ram()
  - load_elf_ram_sym()

The argument added to these functions is called 'pflags' and is of
type 'uint32_t*' (that matches the the pointer to the 'elf_word' -
the type of the field 'e_flags' in both 32-bit and 64-bit variants
of ELF header). Callers are allowed to pass NULL as that argument,
and in such case no lookup to the field 'e_flags' will happen, and
no information will be returned, of course.

May I ask you, Peter, to fix them while applying?
